Three elderly men diagnosed with an until-now irreversible heart condition, transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis, experienced an unprecedented spontaneous recovery confirmed by medical scans, leading researchers at UCL and the Royal Free Hospital to identify a unique amyloid-targeting immune response in these patients. This breakthrough raises the potential for new treatments and the possibility of harnessing these antibodies, combined with gene-editing therapies, to clear toxic protein build-ups in the heart and halt…
